Chapter 892
Sally was a cold and aloof person with no empathy for others. Hence, after Cooper's voice trailed off, she merely
left the room impassively.
“Aren't you going to cook? I'm hungry.”
He shifted his gaze away from the photo and followed her out of the bedroom. Just then, Genevieve called him on
his phone. “Coop, is Sally making things difficult for you?”
He glanced at Sally's retreating figure and slowed his pace. “Nope.”
On the other end of the line, Genevieve sighed in relief. “That's good, then. Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner
together.”
“You guys go ahead. I have some work to do.” With Sally staying at his, he was worried she would call him as soon
as he went out and order him to return.
I just need to bear with it for now.

saw that it was the delivery person from Golden Restaurant.
When placing his order, Cooper had requested for the restaurant to send the food over on plates so that it looked
as though the dishes were homecooked.
He opened the bag and tore the tinfoil cover off the plate, revealing the steaming hot pork ribs that looked as
though they were fresh out of the pot. Placing a fork next to Sally's hand, he said, “Just pretend that I made these.”
She lifted her gaze and looked at him with dissatisfaction. Nonetheless, she remained silent and picked up the fork.
Over at Genevieve Orsi Productions, James heard the rumors about Jerry and Genevieve, then went to talk to
Coolplay Entertainment's boss about the termination of Jerry's contract. Although they had blacklisted Jerry, they
knew about Specter Corporation's relationship with Genevieve and that she would have deep pockets. Hence, they
wanted to pressure Jerry into coughing up a large sum of money, citing that it was because his contract had not yet
ended. Genevieve also contacted Charlotte in private, which led to the latter spreading the word among her circle
of friends that those who aided Jerry would mean going against her.
When the boss of Coolplay Entertainment saw that, he did not want Jerry to stay blacklisted while under the
company until his contract ended. He also wanted to make a profit, so he took the initiative to get in touch with
James.
After terminating his contract with Coolplay Entertainment in the morning, Jerry went to Genevieve Orsi a little after
three o'clock in the afternoon to sign a new contract.
Genevieve asked her secretary to put away the contract safely, then said to Jerry, “I'll send you the list of managers
later. You can pick who you want. There's also an excellent assistant named Joash, who we've assigned to you.”
Armand had an assistant named Joash when he was going under the alias of Bruce.
She thought Joash was a nice guy, so she signed him on to Genevieve Orsi.
“Okay,” Jerry replied, having no objections to her arrangements. “By the way, are you very close with Harry
Hompton?”
“I know him well enough, I suppose.”
She had only met Harry several times. However, she found him gentle, adorable, and adept at comforting others.
Hence, she had quite a good impression of him.
The light in Jerry's eyes flickered briefly. “You should probably stay away from him. You wouldn't want to stir your

“I know what my boyfriend's character is like, and he understands me well. He wouldn't get jealous over an
eighteen-year-old lad,” she responded in amusement.
If I weren't aware of the relationship between Armand and Harry, I wouldn't be so nice to the latter. Besides, he has
even helped me a few times previously.
Jerry shrugged his shoulders and did not say anything else.
After Jerry left, Genevieve sat down and picked up her phone. She saw that Armand had sent her a text saying that
his superior had come to Jadeborough for an inspection and that he would probably be back late.
Genevieve replied to his text, reminding him not to drink too much and saying she would wait up for him.
After exiting the chatbox, she noticed someone in the group chat Charlotte added her to had mentioned Nigel's
name.
Out of curiosity, she tapped on the group chat and scrolled through the past messages. Only then did she learn that
Dylan had just passed away from a drug overdose at a bar the previous night, shocking his other friends in the
private room.
There was a tight lid on the incident, and the media were not allowed to publish news of what happened. But even
so, it somehow got out among the children of government officials.
His eldest son just became a member of parliament this year, and Nigel himself was elected the chief executive of
Xedells and taken office for only a few months. I didn't expect to hear about such a scandal involving his son.
